One more reason to use Linux operating system

There’s no doubt that Windows is the most widely used operating system in the world, with Mac OS X taking the second step on the podium. But, what about Linux OS? The Linux operating system is not that popular but many people still use it, maybe just out of curiosity or because of the simple interface it has. Whatever may be the reason, Linux is not going to vanish from the operating system market that easily. This thing is for sure, as-long-as there are software packages like CrossOver Linux that offer to extend your Linux OS’s functionality virtually out of its domain. CrossOver Linux allows you to run popular Windows OS application, plug-ins and games; just like they would run in Windows OS.

With CrossOver Linux you can integrate with plug-ins for browsers like Firefox 3.x, Netscape, Konqueror, Mozilla and Opera. You can open any Word, Excel or PowerPoint file or Adobe Photoshop, Windows Media Player 6.4, and much more.
CrossOver Linux comes in two versions, Standard and Professional for the home users and corporate professionals respectively. To choose your CrossOver Linux download options click here.
